I had just got the hang of my turkey enchiladas before I got put on the low histamine diet. Now that I’ve got more confident with experimenting, I thought I’d give them another go. I’m not sure they can still really be called enchiladas, but they’re pretty tasty and add some great variety to my menu.

This is a pretty flexible recipe in terms of the vegetables. As you can see in the header, I used broccoli in that iteration, although I very much prefer kale or cavolo nero as the green part. It’s also flexible in terms of the spices. I started off pretty basic, and always make sure to keep the chilli level quite low. The fennel seeds are a recent addition, which I really like, and this is definitely something I’m still playing with. I’ve used a pinch of asafoetida in the past which works well too.

Ingredients

• 300g turkey mince
• 2 sticks celery, chopped
• 1 tbsp turmeric
• 2 tbsp ground coriander
• 1/8 tsp chipotle flakes
• 1 heaped tsp oregano
• 1 tsp thyme
• 1 tsp fennel seeds
• 1 medium sweet potato, grated
• 2 medium carrots, grated
• 2 handfuls kale/cavolo nero
• 1/2 small tin sweetcorn
• A handful of toasted pumpkin seeds
• 400ml nomato sauce (I use this recipe)
• 4 tortilla wraps
• Vegan cheese

Method

1. Preheat oven to 200C
2. Heat up a large frying pan and put in 2 tbps oil
3. Add the celery and cook over a medium heat until slightly softened
4. Add the turkey mince, break it up and cook until browned
5. While the turkey is browning, add the spices (whichever you can tolerate) and mix well
6. Add the carrots and sweet potato, mix well and let sweat down, about 5 minutes
7. Add in nomato sauce and kale, simmer 5 minutes
8. Add sweetcorn, toasted pumpkin seeds, and vegan cheese if desired, and turn off heat
9. Get wraps out individually and place in dish, then fill with 1/4 of mixture each before carefully rolling and tucking edges under
10. Grate cheese over top
11. Bake for 40-45 minutes until cheese is melted and tortillas are browned

*You can serve this with rice/quinoa/the grain of your choice rather than baking with the wraps. If doing this, make sure the turkey is cooked through before serving.
